I am using the JForex SDK in Eclipse to backtest a strategy. I am using the TesterMain.java file, with the required modifications. I would like to know if it is possible to store the selected instrument`s cache in a defined location? By default it stores it under c:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\JForex\.cache\.
In the JForex client it is possible to define a cache location. I would like to use the same location for both the JForex client and for the TesterMain application, so I don`t have to download and store twice.
WARNING: JForex might delete all folder's content if folder already existed AND was not created by this method call
Is the JForex platform`s Historical Tester using this method call as well? I want to possibly avoid that the cache being deleted every time if I switch between testing a strategy in the platform and in the SDK. As the whole purpose of this would be that both the platform and the SDK using the same cahce location with the same content.

It is rather straightforward to check that it does not.
Is that mean that using the same directory from the client and from the SDK-API is not going to work? If the Client not using this method, I would assume that this method will clear/delete the content of the Client`s cache directory, just as the wiki states. Or do I misunderstood something?
